How to change the primary RAM on a Dell Precision 7740 laptop

[@AlexTch]

Brilliant. Perfect. Thank you so much! I am new to DELL Precision. I would assume that the two memory slots accessible without lifting the keyboard would likely be used first if someone is doing a memory upgrade? They are more easily accessible, vs the primary ones.

1. Battery is adhered in 2 places by factory, I found it necessary to pry evenly in 3 places along the inside edge. I found necessary to use a plastic card wedged at outer edge while prying the battery out. 2. Notice these are ports "B" and "D". It appears the Precision 7740 is expecting the ports to filled sequentially when adding memory, so if you are upgrading these 2 ports only, it may be helpful to restart in BIOS (repeatedly tap "F2") to tell it where memory was added. Otherwise you may get an error message.

whats the max ram this will take?

[@AlexTch]

I think 128GB. Each slot can take upto 32GB memory module. 4 x 32GB = 128GB in total.

[@agpicker481]

In your opinion is the 7740 all around better than the xps15

[@ecologicaltime]

i have not used XPS15, sorry, only the precisions and lattitudes.

[@catonyx]

Anyone know? Can the primary RAM have different sizes than secondary? Such as 8GB primary and 32GB in secondary?

[@ecologicaltime]

you can but its best to match ram exactly
